Quantum Simulation of Hubbard Models - From Unconventional Superconductors to Lattice Gauge Theories

Explore cutting-edge developments in quantum simulation through this 55-minute lecture presented by Professor Fabian Grusdt from LMU Munich. Delve into the fascinating world of fermionic Hubbard models and their applications in understanding high-temperature superconductivity and non-Abelian gauge theories. Learn about recent breakthroughs in experimental platforms that enable microscopic studies of strongly correlated quantum matter, and discover how quantum gas microscopy experiments reveal the intricate structure of emergent charge carriers. Gain insights into the symbiotic relationship between theoretical and experimental work in the field, and understand future prospects including phase-coherent superconductivity and the implementation of lattice gauge theories in table-top experiments. Drawing from his extensive research experience in quantum many-body theory and as a recipient of the ERC Starting grant, Professor Grusdt presents a comprehensive overview of quantum simulations of strongly correlated quantum matter using ultracold atoms and photons.
